Pirate Master
Fagan was one of sixteen "pirates" in pursuit of a potential $1,000,000 grand prize on the CBS show Pirate Master. The show's contestants were split into two separate "crews", and competed against one another each week in searches for hidden treasure. Fagan was placed in the "Black Crew", where he remained for almost the entire run of show, apart from weeks four, five, nine and thirteen.
Fagan defeated Christa DeAngelo in the final, winning a $500,000 grand prize.[2] He then gave the money he earned over the show's duration – $87,624 - to his teammates, thanking them for their participation in the final, and kept the $500,000 grand prize for himself.[3]
